Authorities to Distribute Free Cannabis Plants for Home Cultivation

Ask for a cutting from someone that gets them, really easy to grow cannabis cuttings. But I'd only be interested if the free plants were producing 20% THC buds, waste of time growing anything less.

Truth.

If you are planning on growing something truly useful don't do it near a neighbor with the useless plants. It will wind pollinate and ruin yours.

 

I'm not saying this is part of the plan; that's way too canny for the authorities here. But the result would be the same.

 

BTW, rooting cuttings is not quite as easy and you imply. It takes some skill and nurturing talents. Rooting hormones can help a lot and are readily available.

Hemp makes excellent rope. Nylon makes excellent rope. DuPont makes nylon. DuPont lobbies to get Hemp/Marajiuana classified as narcotic. If my memory serves me (and it might not) this was 1936.

First commercial use of nylon was in 1938. I think you may be thinking that hemp makes excellent cheap paper. William Randolph Hearst provided the newsprint (the paper) for the industry. Hearst lobbies to get hemp classified as a narcotic (including use of hilarious film Reefer Madness made in 1936 and constant pointing at the Mexicans to add a racist touch). All to enhance Hearst's wealth and protect his monopoly.

1/10 that .02%. Hemp.

Such jumbled and confused nonsense. To be expected from anything Anutin has his small hands in. They have not even declared cannibis legal for recreational use. Is this being done to increase revenue streams for the RTP?

This is up there with the oil companies killing the scientist who developed ---fill in the blank ---.

 

And they say you can't teach stoopid.

 

 

I remember reading about this at uni. It was called the Cario Conference but I can't remember the year. I think plenty of 'drugs' were deemed narcotics. Did DuPont lobby the US govt? Sure it's hard to know but it was an arguement I remember reading. Please don't call me stupid.

Hemp grows up to 15 feet tall and it has long massive stacks. In addition, hemp plants can be cultivated together because they grow easily closely packed with each other. Their leaves are skinny, with the largest concentration on the top of the plant. At times, hemp can look like long ditch weed.

Marijuana, on the other hand, has broad leaves, tight buds and can look like a nugget with organs hairs. It rarely exceeds 5 feet height and grows outwards with more buds than hemp. On top of that, each marijuana plant needs to be grown separately.

What a  stupid dangerous idea.

People getting hooked on cannabis and later turning to harder drugs.

People driving  when doped and causing even more Road accidents. 

Even more people getting cancer.

It's all about making money for you know who.

Sad

Bwahahahahah its industrial hemp for pharmacuetical companies mate. So despite your ridiculous "gateway drug" fallacy the most you would get out of industrial hemp is 0.2% as clearly stated in the OP.

 Even if a person had never smoked in their life they could smoke kilos of that a day and never get stoned

I've never had a problem, no rooting compounds required either.

Try smoking it, you will die from cancer before getting stoned

Your lack of knowledge is apparent

It industrial use only, not recreational, however feel free to enjoy another whiskey.

FYI to all you pot smokers...I quit smoking tobacco cigarettes over a year ago. In the course of doing so, I studied up on all the massive health horrors of smoking. And guess what ??? I learned that pot smoking has many of the same health hazards as smoking tobacco. In some ways, even worse. When one typically inhales marijuana, they deeply inhale and hold it in...DEEP in their lungs to obtain the maximum high. FACT: many but not all, of the same toxic ingredients of tobacco smoke are present in marijuana smoke. Look it up for yourself before you "toke up".

You do realize that there is a MASSIVE meth (pills and crystal) problem in thailand already.

 

And that there is massive prison overcrowding, with 60+% low level drug users.

 

The kingdom is awash in hard drugs. Every few days there are multi-million pill busts.

 

Three days ago, Petchabun... Two men have been arrested with more than 1.6 million speed pills and 30 Kg of crystal methamphetamine and weapons seized in Lom Sak district of this lower northern province.

 

 

I guess your point is that legal cannabis will slow any transition to "hard drugs" because, well folks need to get hooked on cannabis first.

One word: edibles.

 

But do carry on.

Right again, Just a thought wouldn't it be better to feed the hungry instead of getting them high as a kite?

I think it's medicinal marijuana and efforts are made to feed the hungry  but why should that impede efforts in other areas. The long term benefits to Thai society  of the decriminalisation of marijuana is potentially breath taking wealth creation, liberation, enhanced justice and the  diminution  of corruption

[Shocked farang]

This will definitely bring back the Chinese tourists! So many of them are looking forward to their first experience smoking a joint, listening to the Greatful Dead!

A person CANNOT get hooked on 0.02% THC hemp. And more Thai people will get cancer from the sh1tty food they eat and the 'real' ciggies they smoke instead of vaping..

None I know. Calling BS on this claim.

 

Yeah, I know this is a thing in Amsterdam coffee shops, where locals put everything in, incl, hash, oil, crumble.

Euros yes, Americans no.

As  a young Brit, I used to mix with tobacco, then I started  mixing with Americans and just smoke pure. The absolute best way is to smoke cannabis with opium rubbed into the papers (I was introduced to this by a French guy).
